president says mitt romney has a $5 trillion tax cut, and mitt romney says it's not $5 trillion. leaving aside your own party and even the president's party, do you think it confuses people at home, and then they have to kind of pick and choose who they think is telling the truth? >> well, look, there's fact checking tomorrow about the reallies, but the -- realities, but the point is mitt romney wants to lower the tax rate, simplify the tax code, but not in a way that grows the debt. those are very specific, but powerful governing principles. now he's going to engage republicans and democrats in how to accomplish that. that's how you get things done in washington, d.c.. not like this president that tried to ram it down our throats, basically, without working with republicans, force things like the stimulus and obamacare on to the economy without any input of the legislative branch on many occasions. that's been counterproductive. neil: i know you have to go, but there's a poll that the latest read of latinos is 72% favor the president. is that needle going to change? >> let me te

governor romney says we should replace it. i'm just going to repeal it but we can replace it with something. but the problem is he hasn't described what exactly we'd replace it with other than saying we're going to leave if to the states. but the fact of the matter is some of the prescriptions that he's offered like letting you buy insurance across state lines, there's no indication that that somehow is going to help someone who's got a pre-existing condition be able to finally buy insurance. in fact, it's estimated that by repealing obama care you're looking at 50 million people losing health insurance at a time when it's vitally important. >> let's let the governor explain what you would do if obama care is repealed. how would you replace it? >> actually, it's a lengthy description but number one, pre-existing conditions are covered under my plan. number two, young people are able to stay on their family plan. that's already offered in the private marketplace. you don't have to have the government mandate to for that to occu

romney cares about education. when he tells a student that you should borrow money from your parents to go to college, that indicates the degree to which there may not be as much of a focus on the fact that folks like myself, folks like michele, kids who probably attended the university of denver did not have that option. for us to make sure they have the opportunity and can walk through the door, that is vitally important not just to the kids, it is how we will grow the economy over the long term. >> we are running out of time. response to that. >>-- respnd to that. >> i have no plan to cut education funding and grants for people going to college. i am not planning on making changes there. you make a good point. the place you put your money makes it a clear indication on where your heart is. you put $90 million into green jobs. i am all in favor of green energy. that would have hired 2 million teachers. $90 billion. these businesses may have gone out of business -- a number of them happen to be owned by people wh

let's go back to what governor romney indicated.. under his plan, he would be able to cover people with pre-%+ existing conditions. actually, governor, that is not what your plan does. what it does is to duplicate what is already the law, which says, if you are out of health insurance for three months, you pan end up getting continuous coverage and an insurance company cannot deny you if it has been under 90 days. but that is already the law. that does not help the millions of people out there with pre- existing conditions. there is a reason why governor romney set up a plan he did in massachusetts. it was not a government takeover of health carr. it was the largest expansion of private insurance. what it does say is insurers, you havv to take everybody. that also means yyu have more customers. but when governor romney says he will replace it with some thing, but can not detail how it will be replaced, and the reason he said the system in massachusetts is because there is not a better way of dealing with the pre-existing conditions p
